We can show you the real things we've done to help with public safety, not the stunts that this president does." -- Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear read more

A late (1969) Flower Power 60's rebellion genre English hit. Produced by Pete Townshend of The Who, who also played bass guitar on the recording.
[Verse 1]
Call out the instigators
Because there's something in the air
We got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

Israel to crack down on settler violence in the West Bank
www.euronews.com
...A document seen exclusively by Euronews shows instructions by the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the Israeli army and police to crack down on settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.
The instructions, shared in a non-public document titled "Prime Minister's Directive on Combating Nationalist Crimes in Judea and Samaria," are an exceedingly unusual move for the Netanyahu administration. Judea and Samaria are the biblical names of the area known today as the West Bank.
The army had announced last week it was diverting troops away from its ongoing offensive in Lebanon to the West Bank in order to rein in Jewish settler violence. It is the first time Israel pulls out forces from an active war front to dispatch them to a territory deemed far less dangerous or critical. ...
Carly Simon - It Was So Easy (1972)
www.youtube.com
Lyrics excerpt...
...
I remember a time, rompin' through the woods
Sun against our skin instead of clothes
When we felt hungry we would eat
When we felt glad we'd dance
And whenever we felt drowsy we would doze
It was so easy then never takin' any stands
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
I remember a time when our fears could be named
And courage meant not refusing dares
I remember when we took such cares to step never on the cracks,
no only on the squares
Or else we'd be abducted by the bears
It was so easy then never makin' any plans
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
It was so easy then never makin' any plans
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
And now we are grown, with debts and regrets
And broken hearts and sentimental schemes
Now every tender failure seems to overthrow old dreams
Love can drive a normal woman to extremes
It was so easy once, holdin' hands without a plan
It was so easy once holdin' hands
Just holdin' hands
